There are Cost to pay…

There are Cost to pay…
September 24, 2010

I want to help everybody to become Disciples of Christ. It is not easy. I must learn to love them. I must care about his life. So, I don’t just teach them the doctrine but I also down to earth.

I also want to be a success business man. I and my father are investing in a beef farm business. It’s very tired to go to the beef farm because the farm is very far away from our house. Need 1.5 hours to go there by car and need 1 hour more to reach the farm by speed boat. Now the farm is well guarded by the civilians. They are not enemies but friend now. God always show me the best way when I am out of idea.

My laundry business is going well now. There are more than 5 transactions everydays steadily, although my targets are 40 transactions per days. So, I bought a dryer and it makes my electricity billing increase and to catch up I myself sometime must do some ironing. I want to do that because I want to be ready when God wants to bless me. God always give me wisdom and bless my business.

God, thank you so much.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. John (KJV)

Are we blind also?...

Are we blind also?...
September 23, 2010

Jesus cured a blind man and the Pharisees didn’t believe that Jesus did that. The Pharisees found his parents and asked about who has cured their son and his parent said that their son was adult know he should answer by himself.

The Pharisees found the blind man and ask about who cured him and he answered that Jesus cured him and He was the person that Jesus cured and the Pharisees asked to each other whether they were blind also.

Sometime I need to show to the people that Jesus has cured me from my ‘sick life’, so, the others can see their life and can realized that their life was sick also and need to be the Disciple of Christ.

Sometime to share bible means sharing life. I need to share my life that has been changed by Jesus. The persons that listen to my story can realized that he need Jesus also.

And some of the Pharisees which were with him heard these words, and said unto him, Are we blind also? Jesus said unto them, If ye were blind, ye should have no sin: but now ye say, We see; therefore your sin remaineth.

Motivations…

Motivations…
September 22, 2010

Become a Christian (or a Disciple of Christ) for years some time can change my motivation in to a wrong one. I seek God not have a good relationship with him anymore but to ask for help and blessing.

This is not good. If my heart like that, I must immediately change it with the right one with the right motivations. I must seek God everyday not to see the miracles (although God can still make miracles in my life), not because what I eat (although God can still bless me with foods), not because another bless like wealth, health, etc (although God can still give me that).

Jesus said that I must not work for the thing that can perish but for the thing that endure unto everlasting life and it is salvations. I must make sure that I was saved when I die and I must help other people to be saved (although sometime I need to work hard to maintain my family’s needs).

By the way, actually God really help me to maintain my family. I just focus on the people that want to learn the bible and I believe that God keep giving me the customers for my laundry business and it does.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, Ye seek me, not because ye saw the miracles, but because ye did eat of the loaves, and were filled. Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.
